Yet another sport I got into

At the 40th km mark of my first 80 km Cycling Ride
at M7 Cycleway Sydney NSW


Most of my close friends would tell you I am a sporty kind of guy. As much as i can, i try to do something within the week to keep me fit. I've always liked running and playing active sports like soccer, tennis and basketball but as i grew older my knees started to hurt especially when I run on pavement. 

Because of this i have limited myself from running and tried cycling. I recently started cycling when i got my first road bike last December of 2011. Since then i have been riding 20kms, 40kms up to 80kms. Cycling's been a good alternative to my running, this way i get my cardio fix at the same time it doesn't hurt my knees at all.

One thing I also like about cycling is that i get to see Australia in a different way. I've done a few scenic rides that are exciting and nice to take photos of.
